MONITORING, ANALYZING, AND MAPPING OF COMPUTING RESOURCES
Systems and techniques for dynamic monitoring, analysis and mapping of resources are described. Monitoring data can be obtained from a variety of different sources, such as operating systems, applications, hardware interfaces, and the like. In addition to obtaining monitoring data, health data can also be obtained for one or more of the computing resources. After obtaining the monitoring data and the health data, the monitoring data and health data may be used to determine whether a computing environment has computing resources available to meet the needs for a workflow. Instead of waiting for a failure event to occur, a user can be proactively informed that computing resources utilized, or computing resources that may be utilized by the workflow are experiencing health issues and/or not available within a computing environment.
